    Hi Gents. I’ve only just come across your podcast (listened to the last two). It’s a fantastic listen and you keep my company on my weekly commute from Cornwall to Kent (5.5 hours). Please keep it going.

  • Best Ever

    My previous score was harsh, but this episode isn't just the best BSLB podcast so far, but one of the best podcasts I've ever heard. This is the BSLB 'A' Team. Cried laughing all the way through, but insightful and relevant LCFC football chat too. It has it all! Exceptional. Well done lads.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Big Strong Leicester Boys - Henry Winter on Leicester's decline
Q: What does Henry Winter think is the fundamental problem at Leicester City right now?
Winter argues that the core issue is poor leadership and governance at the top, which has allowed a pattern of mismanagement and recruitment failures. He suggests that without fresh energy and a clear, accountable direction, the club will continue to stumble even if some on-pitch talent remains.
Big Strong Leicester Boys - Breaking Bad the sequel
Q: Gary, what would you say to the idea that ownership needs a reset to save the club?
A reset could help if it leads to a sustainable rebuild, but it has to be paired with accountability, stable leadership, and a clear plan for recruitment, youth development, and budget management.
Big Strong Leicester Boys - "The run really isn't bad on paper if you add wins to it.."
Q: Is this the worst Leicester City team in the Premier League?
The consensus is that the team from two seasons ago that faced relegation had a lack of both quality and character, making it the worst for many, although current struggles highlight similar concerns.
Big Strong Leicester Boys - "The run really isn't bad on paper if you add wins to it.."
Q: Have we improved under Ruud van Nistelrooy?
Yes, there have been small noticeable improvements, especially in organization and overall strategy, but the team still struggles with individual errors.
Big Strong Leicester Boys - "That wasn't very Christmassy"
Q: What did you all think about the fan park initiative?
The fan park had potential but was marred by weather issues and lack of adequate promotion. Their setup created unnecessary barriers for fans.
